Probably gonna need to replace the whole tranny. Better to get the fix done now than to have it break on your during a launch or even after warranty expires.

That would be a 2-3 grand job probably if not under warranty.

Probably found the reason for that main shaft failure.. My call is shitty metal quality. Someone yell at Tremec to start checking their suppliers.

Why? In the end it's not GM's fault. It's probably Tremec's fault at the top end; the metal supplier at the bottom regardless of what's going on.

GM threw the Tranny in the car that HAD been tested already at Tremec's production facility. They threw it out their doors at GM.. their fault. It's like going to Best buy and buying a CD that blows up your player. Do you blame best buy? No, you blame the CD maker..

Oh I didn't say it was GM's fault I just have learned on here not to believe anything unless it is verified.

I am in daily contact with Management at GM doing the updates for all QC cars. I have already answered Hawks and I just saw another post seeking the same answer.

At this point there is no official word from GM regarding any car or group of cars being held in Quality Control. Each and every Camaro5 members cars that are in Quality control can get updates from their Dealer, Customer Service or post on the Quality Control thread and GM will provide the current status and if delivery information is available give that information as well. This information is current as of 2:00 pm mst.

Everybody knows somebody that had a friend that was told by so and so something regarding the Camaro and its production.

The only facts we know is that GM is making every effort to provide a quality vehicle that will be free of manufacturing defects. A car being held in QC will never be identified for the reason it is there unless an official recall is made. Some are there for paint or body issues, some are there for electrical issues, some are there for missing parts. Whatever the reason the main thing to remember is that they are being held so that they can be repaired and meet the high standards of quality that we all expect.

Hopefully you all can not panic for the rest of the day and If I do hear any official statements regarding our cars I will make sure that it gets posted right away and we will track the repair process right there with you.
